Two curvilinear earthwork ditches, less than 2 metres wide, are visible on images derived from lidar data captured in 2007 and 2013, on the valley slopes west of Collacombe Barton. Parts are also visible on the 1940s RAF aerial photographs. They broadly follow the contour, dropping less than 5 metres over a visible length of approximately 300 metres, and are interpreted as the gutters of a post-medieval or 19th century catchmeadow, apparently having been taken off the natural watercourse to the north. No features are depicted on the exact location of the earthworks on the late-19th century OS maps, and any catchmeadow here is likely to have gone out of use by this date.
